DescriptionThe Houston Parks Board's Land Acquisition Program is working towards the expansion of the City's park system, in partnership with the City's Parks and Recreation Department, Harris County Flood Control District and other entities. Our goal is to improve the quality of life for Houstonians by acquiring more parkland to ensure availability of equitably distributed park spaces as the city continues its aggressive growth. One area of particular focus is acquiring green spaces along the bayous to help improve flood prevention while providing park amenities for the community. The HPB Land Acquisition Program acquired $1,365,008 in property for additional greenspaces and funded $41,537 in properties for the Houston Parks Board LGC. HPB also donated $411,081 in land assets back to a community association. In the fiscal year ending 6/30/2011, the HPB Board approved a contribution of $150,000 to the newly formed Houston Parks Board Foundation.Description

IdentifierGrantmaker's Description of How Grants are UsedIdentifier
ExplanationThe Houston Parks Board (HPB) solicits gifts and bequests for park acquisitions, additions, and improvements within the city of Houston and the surrounding metropolitan area. From time to time, it transfers land (or funds set aside to purchase land) that it has acquired to the City of Houston or to the Houston Parks Board LGC, a local Ggvernment corporation that was formed to hold the parkland and improvements of HPB and to collect funds from the City and perhaps federal agencies. During this fiscal year, HPB transferred property to a community association which wanted to add the property to its community holdings but didn't have the means to purchase the property. Also during this fiscal year, the HPB Board approved a contribution of $150,000 to the newly formed Houston Parks Board Foundation, which holds endowment funds on behalf of HPB.HPB also acts as an agent for the City of Houston regarding certain funds that it maintains on behalf of the City. Two such funds provide scholarships to students. The Houston Parks and Recreation Department's A.S.K. Group and the First Tee Program determine the scholarship recipients and have HPB write a check directly to the school the student is attending. ASK and the First Tee Program monitor the initial and ongoing qualification of scholarship recipients, not HPB.Explanation
